Steve Bannon and guests Sean Spicer, Joe Hoft, and Khalil Sayegh frame the political climate as a "primal scream of a dying regime," promoting their book Trump 2.0 while alleging Chinese Communist Party infiltration via groups like Acorn and the iBrain project. They discuss alleged Vatican II communist infiltration and claim Karl Marx was an occultist, alongside reporting on Israeli far-right extremists attacking Christians in the Holy Land due to theological objections to the Trinity. The episode concludes with promotions for gold investing, Sacred Human Health, and Mike Lindell's gubernatorial campaign, suggesting a broader strategy of cultural warfare against perceived Marxist and jihadist threats. [Automatically generated summary]
And we're going to go from Israel to the war and the war here at home.
And it's a political warfare.
This is why May Day, they didn't choose May Day randomly.
That is the Marxist communist high holy day.
This is why they had it out yesterday.
This is why we teed it up.
This is why Thayer, one of the most brilliant guys around, has taken a year of his life to work on this book that tells you about the 100 year war between Marxism and communism in the United States of America.
You saw it yesterday in the streets.
We could have played you hours of those young kids of how they've been twisted by these Marxists in the education system that you're paying for.
Just remember, you're paying.
You're paying for the destruction of your own country.
That's why this whole thing is like a Greek tragedy.
The greatest strength of the hero turns out to be the underside of his weakness that destroys him.
Sean Spicer.
So this weekend, Bomber Command is, and we're putting up the Twitter feed of Caroline Wren, the Twitter feed of Alex DeGrasse, and the Twitter feed of Sean Spicer.
I want you to go to all three of them continually.
To make sure you're taking appropriate action, they're putting up names and numbers, put up the number.
I think it was the cell phone number, the guy in South Carolina.
I'm sure that turned out well for him.
Spicer, we're in it now.
That's why the book, and also the book is a cause celeb for us because the New York Times, and this is another of the great imprints we have at Skyhorse, along with War Room, putting out all the best conservative and Trump books.
The New York Times, which If you get on the New York Times bestseller list, and this is what happened to Kill to Order, our book, the War Room book that came out a couple weeks ago, it made number eight the first week, then it gets expanded.
Other lists pick it up, other venues pick it up because it's New York Times top 10.
The following week, it was number nine.
So people now have a broader context of understanding the demons of the Chinese Communist Party and what they do.
That's why it's so important that Trump 2.0 make the top 10.
And I think we're on the cusp, Sean Spicer, if we get a couple of three sales today on the show.
Of people that are pro President Trump.
But as you know, the bias of the New York Times is to shut down anything that says Trump.
And I mean, look, we've been crushing it this week with sales, largely because you and the War Room posse and actually all the whole Real America's Voice team has been phenomenal.
President Trump wrote the foreword.
I think that people in the New York Times world are pretty scared, but the numbers are there.
The next 24 hours are crucial, Steve, just to bottom line this.
So if people go, And I've said this all week to the RAV community.
But if you go to Amazon and order Trump 2.0, send a screenshot of your purchase to contact at SeanSpeister.com.
I will send out for you a book plate personalized.
So, if you want it made as a gift to somebody or yourself, I love to collect signed books.
We'll send this out to you in the next few days.
But, like, all you do is go to Amazon, order the book, send a screenshot if you want it signed.
And I'll send you out this little book plate that you insert into the book that makes it a signed book.
And I'll personalize it if you want it to your mom for Mother's Day or something like that.
But anyway, I appreciate all the support from the War Room posse, from everyone at Real America's Voice.
But this needs to be a New York Times bestseller list because the whole book is about the Trump 2.0 agenda, what's at stake.
Why it's important that it be made permanent, why it's different than Trump 2.0.
And that's the key thing everybody gets what President Trump is doing, whether it's NATO, trade, DEI eradication, closing the border.
But understanding what happened in those intervening four years is a model going forward.
What America First Policy Institute, Project 2025, America First Legal.
There's an entire case, Steve.
You and I were there the first time.
I like to point this out to people.
Do you realize that President Trump didn't go to the Kennedy Center the entire first four years?
He didn't go.
This time in Trump 2.0, After Spicer v. Biden, the lawsuit that we've talked about before, he fired everyone on the board, renamed the building, and then moderated the Kennedy Center Honors live on CBS.
This is a very different administration.
And there's a reason for it.
And there's a reason that President Trump wrote the forward to Trump 2.0 because explaining that to people, like, you know, I always like to ask the question, why?
Why is something happening?
Why is something taking off?
Why did something fail?
Understanding the root cause of this, unlike Kamala Harris, is important.
And so To me, if you want to understand why Trump 2.0 is being as successful as it is in countless areas, you've got to get this book.
Go to Amazon right now, order Trump 2.0.
And if you want it signed, send a screenshot to contact at SeanSpeiser.com.
Obviously, the book, Trump 2.0, is available on Amazon.
I'm on Twitter at Sean Spicer.
But if you're in the DC area or want to take a trip, speaking of the Kennedy Center, we're going to be live at the Kennedy Center doing an event, which is kind of scary.
On May 15th, tickets are free.
You can get VIP tickets as well at seanspicer.com.
And I'm excited because the VIP reception is on the roof, which I've never been on the roof.
I'm scared of heights.
But I think before it closes for a few years, I'm excited for that experience.
This thing, when it first, oh no, nothing can happen.
It's just going to be Louisiana.
Screw that.
They're at least, I don't know, potentially 15.
Pickups here, and we're going to need every one of them.
Is Joe Hoft with us?
Joe Hoft, I want a quick update on Jim, but also you've got this reporting.
I want to make sure that we talk about all these NGOs and the Acorn fakes, and so people understand this because nothing could be better than commemorating May Day to put these Marxists out of business than understanding the scams they're running on the American people, sir.
Yeah, and speaking about that, as you talk about May Day, I'm thinking about.
In the Catholic Church, the month of May is the month for Mary, and it's amazing that the communists used May 1st, which is a day of celebration for Mary, as their day of celebration as well.
It's really just evil, it's clearly a spiritual war.
And uh, could go on and on about that, but yeah, we've got some pieces we put up at joelhoff.com and the Gateway Pundit over the last nine days, and they are they involve this uh connection between uh non profits, foreign entities, and others, and the and how they worked together.
In the to basically steal that 2020 election, we know it was stolen, and we've revisited some posts we put up a few years back and added to them.
And ultimately, it's much of this does lead back to the days of Acorn.
Many of these people that were in Acorn basically moved over to this Working Families Party out of New York, yeah, which is now basically taking over the Democrat Party.
There, you have to be a member of the Working Families Party to be elected.
We found that actually, maybe the first connection to That party was Schumer back in 1998.
He spoke about that recently.
All of these people that we know, Letitia James, we found she was the first one to vote for the party.
But don't bury the lead is that when Andrew Breitbart and James O'Keefe and Jim Hoff and Gateway Pundit and others took down and destroyed Acorn, it just recreated itself and it took over and went into the husk of the Working Families Party.
And that's why the Working Families Party is so strong because the Acorn said, particularly money coming from the federal government and outside foreign money.
They still exist.
They just call themselves the Working Family Party.
And they created basically a party so that instead of just going out and getting voter registrations or making them up or whatever they did, they're now, they created a party.
And all these individuals in New York State now are connected to that party.
You can be a member of two parties in New York.
So you'll be a member of the Democrat Party and this Working Families Party.
We'll go up momentarily, but he's got it's May Day, International Communist Day.
It's also a satanic, unholy day, which is not a coincidence.
There's much evidence Karl Marx was a dark occultist.
And he cites a book, Marx and Satan, which I admit I have not read yet, but I'm ordering right now.
I will read it ASAP.
Dr. Bradley Thayer, it is very dark.
We have to face this.
The Republican Party, the Chamber of Commerce, those people that are always with us, they're not fighters.
They just want to go along to get along.
Give them a little tax cut, do this, do that, a little.
That's fine.
They want to go to the club and play golf.
They want to, you know, be part of the community and be accepted by their betters that run the culture in this country.
They're not going to fight.
That's why this has always been the MAGA movement, it's always been a working class, middle class group of fighters.
And we're not going to give up.
This is a populist nationalist movement that is quite traditionalist in its outlook.
And it will not, we're going to finish what we started.
Think about it.
This whole thing on the DEI gerrymandering that's been around for decades and decades and decades, and nobody fought it.
And finally, people had the guts down in Louisiana to do it.
And then, when it was announced as unconstitutional, all these phony Republicans, or I'd love the Constitution, the Constitution, a holy document.
I'd love the Constitution.
Where in the hell were you?
And why were you not prepared?
To shut down these unconstitutional districts and do whatever you needed to do to make it happen.
Until this show, this audience, people like Wren and DeGrasse and Spicer and others, and then finally the President of the United States, like Trump doesn't have enough on his frickin' plate.
Everybody's telling me how Trump's awful, Trump doing this, Trump doing that.
He got the whole world on his shoulders.
He's fighting everybody, still trying to put him in prison.
And he's got to call Bill Lee in Tennessee, he's got to call McMasters in South Carolina.
Good God in heaven.
When is somebody going to pick it up?
You've been drafting off him and leeching off him for 10 freaking years.
You're all there sucking up to him to get his endorsement.
Why does he have to call Bill Lee in Tennessee?
Why does he have to call Ivy in Alabama?
Why does he have enough to do?
This is outrageous.
And I don't want to hear about his shortcomings.
I want to know what you're doing.
I know what this is always doing, not you.
I'm talking about the Republican establishment, guys like Thune and Johnson.
You're a bunch of leeches.
All you are is leeches.
I detest you almost as much as I detest these Marxists.
Why?
Because you know what the threat is and you just sit there.
In the United States Senate, if we lose the United States Senate, it's because you deserve to be beaten.
You haven't done anything except sit there with your donors and Johnson and everybody in Politico.
Well, we've got a billion dollars of cash.
Your cash ain't going to save you.
Call Cornyn, call Las Vidas, and see how it saved Cornyn down in Texas.
It saved him.
$100 million to destroy a good man like Ken Paxton?
To hell with all of you.
You have proven in the last 72 hours how incredibly feckless you are.
And please don't sit there and go, I love the Constitution.
Well, Lenin did have the idea of useful idiots, Steve, and I think that's what we're really seeing here, as your comments captured.
A lot of folks are working for the other side, whether they know it or not.
Look, what we need to do to win is to know who we are as Americans and value Western civilization.
And secondly, we need to know the enemy.
And the enemy told us how he operates.
Lenin said, I need agitation.
I need, secondly, propaganda.
Thirdly, I need organization focused, directed, organized movements that rely on agitation, propaganda, and violence, coercion, violence when they're not getting their way.
They're going to turn to that.
So we need to see where we are, understanding ourselves, understanding the enemy, and why we're going to win, because America is far stronger than these neo Bolsheviks, even though we've got prodigious problems.
And one element to leave on is really to understand how artificial intelligence is going to affect this.
The Bolsheviks have captured the ideas industry, educational system, law firms, media, et cetera.
They're feeding the LLMs off of that.
Right, so the content going in to uh what Sam Altman is creating is going to be neo Bolshevik, so we've got to stop that now.
There's a group in China called iBrain, which is working to combine body and brain to computers.
And that's all well and good.
They're free to do whatever they want.
The problem is when you have American scientists and American universities who are participating in this.
And he was calling out Charles Lieber, and there are actually six others.
These are U.S. scientists who are now going to China and cooperating.
And this goes back to the work that Ed Martin was doing when he was the D.C. U.S. attorney, calling out these nonprofits and these universities who are basically hand in glove with the Chinese Communist Party, Steve.
Of course, that's why the communists picked May the first, because they wanted to take the theme, continue with the theme introduced by the Catholic Church, one of the great pillars of Western civilization.
Keep the theme of saying, well, we're interested in the worker, but strip out all of the foundations and the scaffolding behind the concept, which is basically pretty much what communism is.
An extension in that sense of the Enlightenment, which is to try to keep to a certain extent the same moral framework provided by 2000 years of Christianity, but without the revelation and just pinning it on rationalism.
That's what I mean in this sense.
It's a continuation of the Enlightenment project, and we can see how well it's succeeding.
I don't think in the West, to the degree that it's happening now, any time before 1958, which was when Pius XII died, many people consider, some people consider to be the last true Catholic Pope.
After that period onwards, the communism has been infiltrating the Catholic Church via the Second Vatican Council and onwards via the bishops, the so called bishops, and what have you.
And now we have what was a traditional bulwark against.
Communism now actually encouraging it.
That's why the fight is so extreme and taking place the level that it is doing now.
I close with this, Steve.
Pius XII quite correctly said that Catholics can't even work with communists, even on areas to promote peace, because communism is so iniquitous and so evil.
Pius XII was absolutely right, but he was the last pope to say that sort of thing.
To have Palestinian Christians and give them voice, not just with me, but before that.
The GORA Initiative is an organization based in Washington that seeks to educate the public about the importance of peace in the Holy Land between Palestinians and Israelis, Jews and Muslims, and all people who live there.
We believe that peace is achievable and can happen when everyone has their own rights.
And one of the main things we have been doing in the last couple of years, Steve, is focused on the unfortunate increase in attacks on Christians of all backgrounds in the Holy Land, not only Palestinian Christians anymore, but Christians, period.
The truth is that such attacks have always been there in the Holocaust by Israeli radicals.
But for historical records, these groups used to be fragile and used to be fringe.
They weren't really in the mainstream Israeli politics.
The Israeli police used to crack on them more.
And also, there has been a spike in the numbers of these attacks.
And the reason I think why this is happening is that because the Netanyahu government has allowed itself to build a coalition with the far right extremists within Israeli politics.
Those whose teachers have taught them for so many years that it is a command to spit on Christians, it is a command to look at Christians as adulterers.
Also, their teachers have pushed for so long that Jerusalem has to be exclusively Jewish, and therefore you have to push everyone out Muslims and Christians, but specifically Christians because Christians are seen by those people as worships of adulterers because we believe in the Trinity and we believe in the lordship and kingship of our Lord Jesus Christ.
So, this has been an issue.
Historically, we've seen more attacks on Palestinian Christians, and it was like really hard to know whether this is an attack because these people are Christians or whether because they're Palestinians only.
But now we're seeing attacks on Christians because they're Christians.
And to give you an example, this nun that was attacked, she was French national.
So I'll give you an example from a personal relationship I had with a great friend of mine who's an Israeli.
He's Zionist and he was at one of those yeshivas in the West Bank or what they call the Israelis called Judea and Samaria.
He was religious Zionist.
Part of these yeshivas is like the school where Jewish rabbis learn.
And he told me one of the things they learn at those yeshivas.
Is that although we are fighting with the Muslims right now, the main enemy from their point of view theologically are the Christians because Muslims, like Jews, believe in what's so known as monotheism.
And therefore, they look at Muslims as a monotheistic religion.
They have more in common with them than with Christianity.
But he said the main enemy is always Christians because the Trinity, because, for example, they're not allowed to go to churches and pray there.
And usually, the implication of that also is that churches shouldn't be there for a lot of those extreme settlers.
Because the churches, unlike mosques, are seen as a sign of adultery.
So that's, I think, the issue we're dealing with right now.
Today, the main right wing newspaper in Israel, like center right, not extreme right, Yudhaot Aharonot, has published an article in which it said that the attacks on Christians have gotten out of hands in Israel to the extent that they recorded over 61 attacks on religious figures, on like nuns and priests in the year 2025, over 18 attacks in Jerusalem against churches, and over 50.
One attack that harmed Christian properties in Jerusalem.
The number of Christians in Jerusalem has dropped to a historically very low number.
Less than 1% there are Christians in Jerusalem.
Back in 1925, under the British mandate, we had about 28% Christians in Jerusalem.
How could this be happening now when we are allies in this war in Iran and Israel militarily is so dependent upon the United States of America?
How could you have this increase?
And attacks on Christians at the same time, more than ever, the Israeli military is tied to the United States military.
Whether people like that or not, it just happens to be a fact.
How could you be fighting a war and prosecuting a war that, as Marco Rubio said, not Steve Bannon, Marco Rubio said at the Sticks at the State Department that the imminent attack was going to be on Israel and that's why we attacked first?
The reality is that the Israelis view the Americans as naive.
And they view them as people they can manipulate and people who are more or less under their control, not in some sort of anti Semitic conspiracy.
No, I'm not suggesting that.
But they understand that they have influence.
Netanyahu is on the record saying we got the Americans in our pocket and we can depend on ABAC, we can depend on other pro Israel lobbyists there that the US will support us no matter what we're doing.
And they also depend on what's so known as Christian Zionism here in the US and groups like Kufai and groups like, you know, Other Christian Zionists who have taken space among the conservative Christians here, and they think that these people will support them no matter what.
And for so long, they've managed to bring all sorts of Christians to the Holy Land to see Jerusalem and the holy sites while ignoring the Christians who live there, whether they're Palestinian Christians who their ancestors have been there for 2,000 years, like myself, or even just like German and French and American monks and priests who live there, and who, because they live there, they've been spit on, they've been attacked by.
Israeli extremists.
And when these tours are taken to Israel, they ignore completely that reality and the people who live there in order to shape the American mind to think that there is some sort of complete civilizational alignment between the state of Israel and the US.
And the truth is, even if that has an element of truth historically, with the new thinking in Israel, there are more anti Christian hate and there are obviously also anti Muslim hate and anti other groups hate.
In a way that is, in my opinion, anti Christian too, because as Christians, we are taught by our Lord to see everyone created in the image of God.
When I see a Muslim kid dying or when I see a Jewish kid dying, I should grieve and cry in the same way as when I see a Christian kid dying.
But the unfortunate reality is that we have what so used to be a minority in Israel that have managed to grab power right now and think otherwise, think that Jewish life and Israeli Jewish life specifically matters much more than anyone else there.
Why do the Christians in the Holy Land not have more support?
And let's set aside the evangelical churches here and the mega churches.
They're maybe very tied to Israel, but the Catholic Church and Orthodox, other churches, the other major branches of the Christian faith, the Catholicism, the Orthodox Church, they're not exactly, they don't exactly have your guys back, right?
You know, partially, the church itself, the institutions there, they do support Christians as much as possible, including by schools that they are provided to Palestinian Christians and to Muslims for that sake.
And I think that's the difference between, like, you know, the leadership of the church in Jerusalem have been consistent in calling out these attacks, but the leaders of the church in the West, and specifically in America, have been very reluctant to talk about these issues.
Remember when Carrie Poller brought up these issues at the hearing of the White House Committee on Religious Freedom?
She was fired, but also condemned by certain bishops at the Catholic Church here in the US.
And I think their concern is that these issues are right away.
Taught as, you know, it's anti Semitic, these accusations, etc.
Now, obviously, anti Semitic is evil.
We would never support or endorse that.
But to say that any criticism of Israel, any criticism of these Israeli extremists who are killing Palestinians or killing Muslims or killing Christians is anti Semitic, it's really wrong.
And I think a lot of these Catholics, brothers and sisters here in the US, are really drained by what's so known as the Jewish Christian religious dialogue.
And they are more or less, I mean, the way I see it is almost blackmailed by our Jewish.
Brothers and sisters, to tell them in order for us to talk to you about religious dialogue and harmony here in the U.S. and pluralism, you have to fully support Israel, never criticize Israel.
And I didn't see enough Christian leaders who would say to them, Oh, listen, wait a second.
We are committed to the safety of American Jews.
We're committing to the safety of Jewish people worldwide.
But listen, you also have to care about Christians, brothers and sisters in Israel, in Jerusalem, and also in the Palestinian territories, because at the end of the day, we're part of the Christedom.
He makes the case that, hey, maybe the Americans and some of the bishops here were embarrassing.
But I haven't actually seen a lot of fire breathing coming out of Rome to support really anything that's going on in protection of Christians in the Holy Land, protection of the actual sites of the Holy Land.
What I see is the Pope is going on an interfaith dialogue, playing footsies with the Muslims in Africa, sir.
Well, To come back to the point I was mentioning just a few moments ago, really, for the last 65 years or so, the institutional Catholic Church is wholly unable to do anything to defend either Christianity or Christians,
rather than in the most extreme cases when silence would simply be impossible, to go through a performative set of platitudes about promoting peace.
Never the peace.
Brought about through faith in Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace.
Obviously, it's the peace brought about by the international rules based order as sponsored by the United Nations.
That's the role of the so called institutional Catholic Church, which has very little these days to do with the traditional Catholic faith.
I know we're coming up to another break, but I'll just close with this.
A couple of Wednesdays ago, Steve, we do our show, which is the review of developments in Christianity, every Wednesday.
And we had a couple of minutes of footage of Orthodox Jews in full schmutter with a hat and all the rest of it, spitting.
I think there were South Korean pilgrims carrying the cross in procession down a very sort of strict, restricted cobblestone walkway.
Relative silence from the West, or certainly from the Catholic Church.
We also had views, footage of people, Jews, spitting on monks, on priests, all sorts of things, spitting outside doors.
To churches.
And we closed the montage with the, I think the actual defense minister, the Israeli defense minister, saying when he was questioned about this, oh, it's a tradition that we have in Judaism spitting outside churches or spitting in front of religious figures.
In the same way, Steve, that we say in the West, oh, it's a tradition to put tinsel on a Christmas tree.
Also, just want to reinforce Gateway Pundit's got it up the assailant of the French nun.
You got to wonder how many of these have gone where they didn't have the surveillance capability, but the assailant of the French known has been arrested, just like they arrested the IDF soldier.
I'd like to have a military tribunal to check the chain of command of what he was ordered to do.
I think that'd be helpful.
Ben Harnwell, thank you for changing up your Saturday to join us, sir.
Where do people go to get your BDI?
First off, any closing thoughts before we go to your getter feed?
I got done early, but I want to tell you this, Steve.
It's very interesting.
I told them, I said, I was just, I said, I'm the only candidate that can raise the money needed to beat Amy Klobuchar because I said, I was just down in Texas and a big fundraiser.
And I told them down there, if I don't win, if you guys don't donate money to my campaign and if we don't win Minnesota, we're all coming down to Texas because everyone's going to be leaving Minnesota as bad as it is up here.
So they just got out the checkbooks.
But, uh, but you guys, the, uh, I did, I did, uh, I did do, we have three campaign events today.
And if you guys want to check them, it's mikelindalegov.com.
It's mikelindalegov.com, everybody.
And it's, we're going to, we're going to, I'm doing everything I can to win this, to save Minnesota and win and be the next governor.
But I did want to get on here.
Like I said, I'm going to extend because I didn't have time to actually to change the sale.
Now you got kind of two sales colliding.
We're going to continue the factory sale today with the specials for Mother's Day.
Our Mother's Day special started today too.
But you got the slippers, $29.98.
